It runs fairly quiet for an air compressor, but it sits out in our shop so it's not an issue. It only took a few minutes to get to 130PSI from empty. We let it sit for a week and it was still at 130PSI, so it is tight. Seems sturdy enough to hold up over time. Overall, we are very happy with this unit.
